Beirut, Lebanon, Dec 1, 2024 (AFP) — A Syria war monitor said pro-Turkey fighters seized a strategic northern town from Kurdish forces on Sunday, in fighting parallel to a major rebel offensive elsewhere in Aleppo province.

Pro-Turkey fighters "took control of the town of Tal Rifaat" and a number of villages nearby, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said, warning around 200,000 Syrian Kurds in north Aleppo province have been "besieged by pro-Turkey factions".
